Painting the shed
This was a little trickier than I thought. It was tedious, but I love seeing the results when it was done.- Hose the shed down with water.
- Scrub the dirt off with a broom.
- Rinse again..and again.
- Allow to fully dry.
- Get all your materials together and ready.
- Paint all the little corners and edges with a paint brush first.
- Then using a roller, paint the rest of it.
We went to Home Depot and bought Behr Exterior paint. I took a piece of siding from our house for them to match the color. It looked a little too dark at first, but once it was on the shed, it really lightened up with all the sunlight. I chose a "satin" finish for the paint.
This photo is a dark because it was already 7pm, but you can kinda see the blue in it. We're going to add some window boxes with flowers for decor. Tomorrow I am going to finish up and then plant some flowers around it.
A view from the front yard. It will look like a mini house.
